How do I remove header and footers when printing

Often when you print a page or report from websites, the printout includes information in the header and footer such as the page title, URL address, date, and page numbers. You can remove this information from the printed version by changing your Internet browser settings. How you do this depends on the browser you are using.

Internet Explorer Browser

  1. Select Page Setup under the File menu of the browser.
  2. Delete the information that appears in Header and Footer fields in the Headers and Footers box. If you would like to retain the page numbers, leave &p of &P in the Header field.
  3. Click OK.

If you're having trouble getting the report to print on one page you may also wish to change some of the other print options such as paper size or margin sizes.
